Re: Harrisons Ford's clothing sizes

In my experience, many people, specially men lie about their height, and all the artists lies about their height.
It is a know fact that even John Wayne used to wear lifts inside his boots and that man was huge!!!

The advantage of S&J is that they are hardcore fans, so they have been doing an insane amount of research to get the most SA possible. I know them personally since 2008 aprox and I know how hard they have worked to get what they offer now.

But, then again the fact of the shirt was so thin I really think is about the time when Raiders was shoot, we had look that the shirt was not polyester, that was a very common fabric in 70's and 80's.
